- A study aimed to tackle the opioid epidemic by forming a large network of organizations in 99 counties vulnerable to hepatitis C virus (HCV) through a digital recruitment method.
- Over a 5-month period, 2118 contact attempts successfully recruited organizations from 73 counties, with health departments needing more effort but ultimately enrolling at higher rates.
- The research found that using multiple recruitment methods, like emails and Zoom calls, boosted success, especially in counties with higher vulnerability to HCV outbreaks.
